Frost Death Knight PvP Guide in Battle for Azeroth (BfA 8.3)

This guide will walk you through everything you need to know to play
in a PvP environment. The guide will cover everything from
talent choices, PvP talents, gameplay and rotation, and useful racial bonuses. It
is most applicable to Arena content, but most talents and racial bonuses will
work in Rated Battlegrounds and skirmishes.

Frost Death Knights in the Current Meta

Frost Death Knights are a force to be reckoned with in arena. They have
the ability to singlehandedly force defensive cooldowns from enemies and
have some of the strongest sustained damage outside of burst cooldowns.
Even when a Frost Death Knight does not have offensive cooldowns active they
can still force defensives with the large amounts of damage they can do.

Content of the Guide

This guide ended up being very long, so we decided to split it in different
pages.

On the Frost Death
Knight PvP Talents page, you will find an analysis of each PvE talent row to
help you decide which talent to pick on each row, as well as an overview of the
PvP talents, which advice on which ones to take and under which conditions.

On the Frost Death
Knight PvP Rotation and Playstyle page, you will learn how to use your
spells, depending on the situation (damaging, surviving, controlling enemy
players, etc.), and what is generally expected of your class and spec in PvP.

On the Frost Death Knight
PvP Best Races page, you will find lists of the Alliance and Horde races,
ranked by how good they are for Frost Death Knights in PvP, as well as
explanations regarding why and how their racials benefit you.
